These experiences are designed to engage participants in a lifelong relationship with the outdoors, foster leadership and skill development, and encourage environmental awareness. The UWCA seeks to achieve these goals through efforts and activities designed to reach and engage underserved low and middle income urban youth and families.  \nThe Canoemobile program is an outgrowth of the original UWCA program. Canoemobile, in collaboration with federal, state, and local partners, serves thousands of youth and adults of all backgrounds and abilities on local waterways. The Canoemobile consists of six handmade, 24-foot Voyageur canoes that serve as a floating classroom. Staff members lead participants in fun and engaging, waterbased activities that also provide participants with important environmental, cultural, and historical content. Canoemobile connects urban youth to the natural world through hands-on, outdoor learning in cities across America.  \nThe Canoemobile program seeks to:  \n􀂃 Engage thousands of underserved urban youth in the outdoors.  \n􀂃 Increase academic achievement through place-based learning.  \n􀂃 Connect youth to educational and career opportunities across the outdoor sector.  \n􀂃 Provide resources, curriculum support, and professional development opportunities for teachers.  \n􀂃 Inspire the next generation of citizens to enjoy, explore, and protect public lands.  \nKEY FINDINGS  \nThe Canoemobile program serves as a floating classroom that provides fun and engaging, waterbased activities to connect urban youth of all abilities to the natural world through hands-on, outdoor learning on local waterways in cities across America.  \n• Between April and May 2016, over 1,000 participants from five states completed the post-trip survey.  \n• The majority of participants (96%) were from California, Minnesota, and Colorado.  \nThere were high levels of agreement across all survey items and the most frequent response for all nine items was strongly agree. To highlight:  \n• 94% agreed that trip leaders were knowledgeable;  \n• 92% agreed that contributing to their community was important;  \n• 91% agreed that they had learned new skills; and  \n• 88% indicated they felt like they belonged on the trip.  \nIn addition, respondents agreed that, as a result of the trip, they: were more interested in protecting the environment (86%), had a stronger connection to nature (86%), will think about the environment more often (85%), had learned about outdoor jobs (80%), and were more aware of their personal strengths (79%).  \nSurvey results were also analyzed comparing the 14 Canoemobile trips open to people of all abilities to the 4 trips open only to people with disabilities. Although the two groups were very similar, respondents in the “disabilities groups”were more likely to agree with the statements that related to an awareness of their own personal strengths and the importance of contributing to their communities.  \nThe program staff who led the Canoemobile trips also administered the post-trip survey to all participants near the end of each trip. The survey consisted of nine items that asked participants to reflect on the effects that the experience had on them. Respondents were asked to indicate their agreement to each statement using a four-item scale ranging from strongly disagree to strongly agree. The surveys were administered to participants on Canoemobile trips that occurred in five states– California, Colorado, Michigan, Minnesota, and Texas–between April 5, 2016 and May 13, 2016.  \nFindings  \nParticipant Demographic Data  \nThe survey responses of 1,065 participants from 18 Canoemobile trips wer","cbCaib4naUfOQUlP","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaib4naUfOQUlP","pdf",231720,"English","# Program Description\n# Key Findings\n# Findings\n## Participant Demographic Data\n## Trip Outcomes","[{\"question\":\"What is the Canoemobile program and how is it delivered?\",\"answer\":\"Canoemobile is an outgrowth of UWCA, delivered in collaboration with federal, state, and local partners.
